Chapter 1736: Advisor to the Society
At noon the next day, when Lin Rui and others were busy reorganizing their troops and completing the handover of positions with the government army. The rebels were also busy, and a few men in gray combat uniforms were at the side of the bombed-out artillery emplacement, inspecting the guns that had been blown up last night.
The rebel leader was yelling at several rebel officers, apparently extremely dissatisfied with yesterday's attack on the artillery position. The rebel leader became more and more angry, and took out his pistol on the spot, and was about to be executed. But a man in a gray combat uniform came over and pressed his hand, "General, this has nothing to do with them. The number of people who come is connoisseurs, and the number of people will not exceed ten, and it may even be less. ”
The rebel leader was even more furious, "A dozen people destroyed my artillery position, these damn idiots, what the hell did they do." I thought I could keep the pressure on Leta with these cannons, but now it's all in vain. Damn it, they should be shot, all of them!"
"Even the most elite people under your command can't stop this raid team. Another man in gray walked over and pointed to the remains of the artillery, "The blasting technique is very professional, and only people who are very familiar with the structure of artillery can blow up the cannon like this." This was not done by government troops, it should be an experienced mercenary squad. ”
"Mr. Powell, you're saying that it was a mercenary?" said the rebel leader with a frown.
"That's right. The man in gray picked up a shell case from the ground and threw it to him, "5.56mm caliber NATO shells." The opponent used an M4A1 automatic rifle, or a German MG4 light machine gun. Therefore, this raid team is most likely mercenaries of the Black Island Company. Because there is a defense contract between the Black Isle Military Company and General Coffey. According to our intelligence, they should have a small force in Leta City, probably five or six hundred men. ”
"These damn mercenaries. The rebel leader said with some annoyance. "Mr. Powell, you are the military adviser you have assigned to me. Can't you just give me some advice?"
"My advice to you is to be more vigilant, especially your personal vigilance. Powell looked at him and said, "These mercenaries are not many, but they are good at special raid operations. In the event that they can't win head-on, they may again use a similar surprise attack to slash you. So you'd better strengthen your own personal guards. ”
"Are you kidding? Mr. Powell, we've besieged Leta City, and it's only a matter of time before we take it. How could they possibly organize a counterattack, or even assassinate me?" the rebel leader dismissed.
"I'm not kidding, you'd better pay attention. In addition, we must report this situation to the baron. Powell shook his head. After taking a few steps without paying attention to the rebel leader, he took out the communicator and whispered, "Baron, I'm in Ammor, and there are some things I need you to know about here. ”
"Don't waste time, just say it. The voice on the phone said coldly.
"There are mercenaries from the Black Isle Company here, numbering about five hundred, although they are currently suppressed in Leta City. But yesterday they organized a surprise attack and blew up the artillery positions on the outskirts of Redstone. The rebel leader was in a rage. Powell replied.
"I know that there is indeed a mercenary of the Black Isle Company operating there, but I still say that we will not send anyone directly into the battle. We've got to make good use of the rebels. Helping them cause more trouble for government forces is the best way to make Black Island unable to fight back. The Red Baron's voice said indifferently.
"I understand, it's just that I'm worried that this small force of mercenaries will cause some trouble. Powell whispered.
"Regardless of them, under the pressure of the large army, this small army will not be able to turn the sky. The Red Baron said coldly, "What you have to do is to control those rebel leaders and let him act according to our ideas." ”
"Understood. Powell nodded, "So far, his actions are still within the scope of our regulations." We control their money and their munitions, and they can only listen to us. Although their successive victories have made these Turkish warlords a little fluttering, they really think of themselves as African Napoleons. ”
"Then give them a beating and make them understand who the boss is. The Red Baron was an understatement.
"Yes, Baron. Powell nodded. He put away his communicator and turned to walk towards the rebels. "General, in view of the unexpected circumstances this time. I need your men to step up their night patrols, all units. ”
"Rest assured, I have given the order if this happens to my men again. Having suffered losses and not a single enemy killed, I will personally carry out the execution of the commander in question. "The rebel leader said viciously.
"That's the best, Your Excellency, we've besieged the capital. Victory aside, I don't want you and your men to ruin our entire plans. So I just consulted with the baron. He felt that we, as military advisers, should not just sit idly by, but should be more deeply involved in commanding operations. Powell laughed.
"Of course, I am absolutely loyal to Monsieur Baron. The rebel leader said with a smile.
"Therefore, within the next month, all the battle plans of your troops will be reviewed and approved by us. Military movements require our approval. What do you think, Your Excellency, General?" Powell looked at the rebels and said.
"This ...... Are you going to take command of me, or do you have any doubts about my abilities?" the rebel leader frowned a little uncomfortably.
"Neither. It's just that our plans have reached a critical stage. The Baron did not want anything to slip through the cracks at this critical moment. That's why it's so recommended. General, you are well aware of the cooperative relationship between us. The Baron values your popularity in the region, which is why he spares no expense in supporting you. To put it bluntly, whether you succeed or not will be related to whether the baron can recover his investment from you. Powell said slowly.
"Of course, of course, I enjoyed working with the Baron very much, and the terms I promised him would never change. The rebel leader immediately said with amusement. These African warlords have always been like this, and if they have milk, they are mothers. Whoever gives money to weapons, they listen.
Powell nodded with satisfaction, "General, I believe you will be a very wise leader." So the conditions I just put forward ......"
"No problem, I'll accommodate any of your requests. The rebel leader smiled and nodded, but he had already cursed in his heart. "You're just the Red Baron's dog, what are you angry here? Lao Tzu is following you now, and when you take Leta City, the overall situation has been decided, you guys are a fart!"
